Look...the reality is, if/until this organization makes a FIRM commitment to get out of their comfort zone and spend $$ on some big bats, they will never win a world series....Unless they get incredibly lucky. The longer they wait to do it while the pitching is still cheap and controllable, the shorter the window gets. Those are just facts.

 

We did, he sucks though.

 

This is required for any team. Even the $200mil Dodgers need this to even make the World Series.

Would be nice to draft and develop one. Unless you count Cain who we drafted but brought back in free agency we don't have one everyday position player that was drafted by this organization.

Good grief umps are bad

 

What happened? According to GameDay both Ball 2 and 3 to Swanson were called correctly just off the plate.

Yelich doesn't count because we traded for him.

I'm talking FA bats, not their own controlled bats.

Dansby had a checked swing that was a clear swing, 1B ump blew it

It was a check swing they incorrectly called no swing.

So if we would have not traded for Yelich and instead gave him a massive $200M+ in free agency, then he would have counted.

It is like trying to play a board game with the guy that keeps making up rules so he always wins.

 

Kinda like him saying we will never win the World Series BUUUUUT we could get lucky and win one though.

 

Always a 'but' scenario so one can never look wrong.

That'll get Soler less aggressive.

 

box didn't exactly look apologetic did he?

Not in the least.

 

I could be wrong, but i think Soler earned that one when he stood and admired his WT flyout in his previous at bat.
